Chapter 295

Some people know that Qin Ran has clones, such as Long Qiqi and Tushan Youyou from Dan Peak, and these two have some speculations about it.

But how many clones Qin Ran actually has, only Qin Ran himself knows.

The cultivation technique Qin Ran practices is called the "Water Flower Heart Sutra," which contains a spell called Illusory as Flowers in the Mirror, Moon Reflected in the Water. The effect of this spell is that Qin Ran can summon several indeterminate water clones. With Qin Ran's current strength, he can summon around a hundred at once. However, these water clones only have a confusing effect and do not possess actual combat power.

The Nine Extremes Primordial Spirit Demon Devouring Skill by Shiji Mo Liu has two characteristics: one is devouring all things to strengthen oneself, and the other is infinitely enlarging the primordial spirit, splitting the primordial spirit, and cultivating clones. Shiji Mo Liu has countless clones, and each fluff of his is a clone.

Qin Ran obtained the Nine Extremes Primordial Spirit Demon Devouring Skill and dismantled and improved it. He combined it with the unnamed refining technique that Dan Peak originally had, obtaining his own refining technique called the "Nine Extremes Primordial Spirit Demon Devouring Skill Modified."

However, because his cultivation has not reached the Nascent Divinity stage, he cannot cultivate clones with independent consciousness and the ability to cultivate independently. So he linked Illusory as Flowers in the Mirror, Moon Reflected in the Water with the "Nine Extremes Primordial Spirit Demon Devouring Skill Modified."

The split primordial spirit and the water clones summoned by Illusory as Flowers in the Mirror, Moon Reflected in the Water are combined to obtain inferior versions of Nascent Divinity stage clones.

This is the essence of Qin Ran's clones.

Because water clones are originally just blobs of water that can change in various ways to confuse the senses, these inferior Nascent Divinity stage clones also have the ability to change in various ways. "Jian Yuanjie" clone can change its appearance at will.

Since water clones have primordial spirits, they also have some thoughts and strength. Each clone can make decisions for itself and fight independently.

In the end, the clone and the main body actually share the same primordial spirit, and the senses of the clone are shared with the main body and controlled by the main body.

In summary, how many clones Qin Ran has depends on how many primordial spirits he can split. And how many primordial spirits Qin Ran can split can also be inferred from the plot Liu Xiaoji demonstrated in front of Chasing the Wind before. Of course, Qin Ran cannot do that yet.

Okay, back to the main point!

The time came to the first day of September.

Still early in the morning, Questioning Dao Square became very noisy, with many outer disciples arriving.

Some passing inner disciples didn't understand what was going on and asked around, only to find out that Chief Alchemy Hall was recruiting new disciples.

"It's just recruiting a steward disciple, is it necessary to make such a big scene?" They were very puzzled, "In the past, Chief Alchemy Elder used to find people himself. What? The Chief Alchemy Elder of Chief Alchemy Hall has changed? Then it seems that the new Chief Alchemy Elder is not very capable."

Someone said, "Probably just showing off, but it doesn't matter. They are all outer disciples."

They said these words and quickly walked past the crowd, without stopping.

The noise here continued until ten o'clock in the morning. At a certain moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Elder Qin is here."

The noise quieted down, and everyone looked in the direction where Elder Qin was coming.nove(l)bi(n.)com

Before the arrival of people, a gust of evil wind swept in, causing a slight tremor of fear in the hearts of the disciples.

Upon closer inspection, a huge white tiger was seen flying through the air. The tiger was massive, with a fierce countenance and a terrifying aura. Anyone with a bit of wit knew that it was the demonic king raised by Dan Peak, the Profound Underworld Spirit Tiger.

Looking up, three people could be seen riding on the back of the white tiger. Sitting in the front, clutching the tiger's ears with both hands, was a chubby little girl. Sitting behind her, one in front and one behind, were a man and a woman. The man was Elder Qin Ran, while the woman was the idol admired by countless disciples of the Sword Sect, Li Shiyin.

Some belatedly realized, "Oh... so the Sword Immortal of Dan Peak is Elder Qin's disciple."

Others responded, "Of course! There's only one master and one disciple at Dan Peak. Naturally, anyone who emerges from Dan Peak as a sword cultivator would be Elder Qin's disciple!"

Some were well-informed, "It's said that the Sword Immortal of Dan Peak belongs to her master's heart. I wonder if it's true."

Someone hurriedly intervened, "Be cautious! How can we dare to speak recklessly?"

As the wind intensified, many people were forced to step back, creating a vacant space in the crowd where the white tiger landed.

As the white tiger touched down, it raised its head and flicked its tail, revealing a fierce tiger stance that awed all the disciples.

And then...

"Yes, Master!"

Li Shiyin summoned about a hundred sword qi, each sword qi picking up a test paper and accurately delivering it to a disciple in front of them. In just a few minutes, she had given every disciple a test paper.

That's how sword qi was used.

Qin Ran sat cross-legged, and a cloud appeared beneath him, lifting him up. He was three meters off the ground, looking at these outer disciples, and said loudly:

"Now, each of you has a test paper in front of you. Your task is to honestly attempt to answer the questions on the test paper within the specified time, including your name and identity information. The time starts now and ends after one hour.

"It's worth noting that anyone suspected of cheating will be disqualified."

"I have a question..." He barely finished speaking when someone raised their hand.

Qin Ran smiled at the person and asked, "Didn't understand?"

"Yes," the person answered seriously, "I feel the exam is too unfair and too rudimentary..."

But before he could finish, Qin Ran interrupted him: "You, disqualified."

Qin Ran still smiled and continued, "I don't want people who can't understand. You're too foolish."

"Why?!" The person's face changed drastically, standing up and shouting loudly.

"Roar..."

But a tiger's roar came, much louder than his voice. At the same time, a gust of wind blew, accurately lifting him up and blowing him straight out of the exam venue.

He only raised a question and was directly disqualified. The spirits of those present shuddered.

Among them, especially Li Shiyin. She realized that her master's tolerance for her was so high!!

"Elder..." Another person raised their hand, saying, "I'm too nervous and forgot to bring a pen."

"Come back next time," Qin Ran smiled, "This is a matter that can change your destiny. In the face of such matters, those prone to mistakes... I don't need."

The person was also blown away by the strong wind.

Someone hurried down from the mountain and shouted outside the exam venue, "Elder Qin, please give me a chance."

Qin Ran glanced at him and replied, "You're late."

"But you only said it's today for the assessment, you didn't specify the exact time," the person said.

Qin Ran smiled faintly, "Those who arrive later than me have no qualifications."

After a few moments of silence following his statement, no one dared to speak.

Even those who forgot to bring their pens sat through the entire hour-long test, hoping someone would lend them one; even those in dire need of a restroom break only left discreetly...

They eventually realized that this was a world of cultivation, not of civilization.

The examination continued, with people being expelled from the exam hall midway through due to cheating or suspected cheating. Cheaters had nothing to say if caught; however, those wrongly suspected of cheating protested for justice and fairness.

Qin Ran emphasized once again, "I've said it before, if I sense you're cheating, then you are. So, please, behave yourselves."

In the realm of cultivation, fairness has never existed.

The exam lasted from twelve noon until two in the afternoon, and when the time was up, Li Shiyin collected the test papers. Using sword qi to collect the papers, no one dared to object.
